Finding Your Accounting and Finance Professionals

Executive Search and Recruiting

Finding the one individual who stands out from the rest, whose unique skills and qualifications make him or her the linchpin in a client's success, is the key to providing a superior executive search. Since the beginning, The Guthrie Group's business has been to find extraordinary leaders. We've built our executive search practice upon the belief that a company's leadership requirements are a critical part of its strategy, and that executive recruiting, both as an art and science, is best performed with an unwavering commitment to the long-term success of our clients. It's that view that has awarded us the reputation as the firm of choice for CFO, Controller, Director, Manager, and Staff Accountant and Analyst assignments.

As a privately held company, we are driven by one objective: serving our clients. Our commitment to quality informs every element of our search: our people, our process and our proprietary database of proven and emerging talent.


Quality People Lead the Way

The quality, integrity, and expertise of our executive recruiters ensure that we provide the best leadership solutions for every assignment. Many of The Guthrie Group's recruiting professionals have previous experience at some of the world's top corporations and management consulting firms. None has ever sat on the sidelines, and all abide by the highest Code of Ethics and standards of excellence.

Happy Man

A Comprehensive and Consultative Approach

Corporate leadership and governance is as important an element of corporate strategy as deciding how to introduce new products or raise capital for expansion. Our role is to be a consultant and strategic adviser in this vital area by providing judgment, market intelligence, and insight, not just a list of names. Before a prospect becomes a candidate, we perform an in-depth analysis to document their accomplishments, management style, leadership philosophy, and personal and professional ambitions. We maintain a close relationship with the client throughout the search process, from our initial meeting to closing the offer. After every executive placement, we conduct a Client Satisfaction Survey, asking clients to evaluate our performance and results.

To ensure that we are providing the highest level of service to our clients, we employ a 'best team' approach for each assignment. Our team members are chosen for their industry expertise, geographic reach, and prior search experience.
